Does Dental Insurance Cover Invisalign? — Lindenhurst NY Guide
Whether dental insurance covers Invisalign depends on whether your plan includes orthodontic benefits — and orthodontic coverage is not included in all dental plans. This guide explains how to find out what your plan covers and how to maximize Invisalign benefits in Lindenhurst.
Does Delta Dental Cover Invisalign?
Delta Dental PPO plans with orthodontic benefits typically cover Invisalign the same way they cover traditional braces. Coverage usually looks like:
- Coverage percentage: 25–50% of the orthodontic fee
- Lifetime maximum: typically $1,000–$2,000 (once used, cannot be used again on the same patient)
- Age restrictions: some plans cover orthodontics only for patients under 19; others cover adults too
- Waiting periods: some plans have 12–24 month waiting periods before orthodontic benefits apply
Important: not all Delta Dental plans include orthodontic benefits. The orthodontic benefit is typically an employer add-on. Check your plan documents under “orthodontic services” or call the member number on your insurance card.

What If My Plan Has No Orthodontic Benefits?
If your dental plan does not include orthodontic coverage, Invisalign is paid out of pocket. At our Lindenhurst practice we offer CareCredit 0% APR financing — a $4,000 treatment can become $111/month over 36 months. FSA and HSA payments are also accepted. Invisalign qualifies as a medical expense for flexible spending accounts, so year-end FSA balances are a good use.

Does Delta Dental cover Invisalign?
Delta Dental plans with orthodontic benefits typically cover Invisalign at 25–50% up to a lifetime maximum of $1,000–$2,000. Not all Delta Dental plans include orthodontic benefits. Call us with your member ID and we verify your specific coverage.
Does FSA or HSA pay for Invisalign?
Yes. Invisalign is a qualified medical expense for both FSA and HSA accounts. Using pre-tax FSA or HSA dollars for Invisalign can reduce your effective out-of-pocket cost by 20–35% depending on your tax bracket. Year-end FSA balances that would otherwise expire are an excellent time to start Invisalign treatment.
